I was clearing a track in an overgrown field (yes, the same one I go the tractor stuck in) to put in a new fence. Unfortunately, right on the new fence line is a wasp nest, built around the stem of a really thick weed, about a foot off the ground (the weeds are about 3 feet high at the moment.
I don't really fancy erecting the fence with the nest right next to me, so what do I do?
I was thinking that if I clear all the grass/weeds around it, they will clear off as it will effectively be in the open. And the stem they've built it on will probably flop over anyway now it has nothing around it. Or I could hit it with the brush cutter and hope for the best. I thought about doing it when it's pouring with rain, hoping they won't fly around as much.
